Has Noah's Ark Finally Been Found? Rabbi Rowe Reacts
Has Noah's Ark finally been found? A team says radar scans of the Durupınar formation, a ship-shaped mound near Mount Ararat in eastern Turkey, show corridors, compartments and decks, and that the site is "not geological." Drilling is underway and the headlines write themselves.Rabbi Daniel Rowe looks at the story behind the claim: the 1948 discovery, the 1959 aerial photos, the measurements that match the Torah's 300 cubits, and seventy years of expeditions, radar surveys, drilling and debunking. He explains why, so far, none of the new findings has been peer reviewed, why sensational claims need significant evidence, and why the truth of Torah never depended on an archaeological find.Then he turns to the deeper message of Noah: that God never gives up on humanity, and that one person can stand against a whole world and say the majority is wrong.Subscribe for more from Rabbi Rowe Reacts, and let us know in the comments what you think of the claim.

Three Years Since October 7: The Dance That Never Stopped
Three years ago, on Simchat Torah, the day Jews around the world dance with the Torah, came one of the darkest days in Jewish history. But it wasn't the first time darkness came to the Jewish people on this festival.Rabbi Daniel Rowe tells stories from the Holocaust: a barber in Kraków forced to desecrate the Torah, who instead held it to his heart and danced; men in the Warsaw Ghetto dancing with a boy as the deportations went on; prisoners in a labor camp circling a hidden Sefer Torah; and the Belzer Rebbe, who escaped before the seventh hakafa, and the Belzer Chassidim who returned decades later to finish the dance.We cry, and we dance. Not because the world is perfect, but because we believe in what it can become. And for those whose lives were stolen on October 7, we can carry their light forward, one name at a time.
May their memory be a blessing.

What Bible Critics Get Wrong About Sukkot
Why does the Torah call Sukkot "the time of our joy" when we leave our comfortable homes to sit in a flimsy hut? Rabbi Daniel Rowe uncovers a fascinating clue hidden in the Exodus story. The Torah says God placed the Israelites in sukkot when He took them out of Egypt, yet we only ever read about them living in tents. So where were the sukkot?
Drawing on the Torah text, the Talmud and the archaeology of ancient Egypt, Rabbi Rowe reveals that the Israelites' first stop, a place called Sukkot, was an old Semitic transit camp, waiting for them with huts and building materials on their very first night of freedom. It was God's way of saying: I've got you covered.The lesson for us? Every Sukkot in the Torah is a place for people on a journey. True joy doesn't come from standing still and getting comfortable. It comes from growing, one step at a time, knowing God is with us every step of the way.
Chag Sameach!
